Guardians of the Galaxy - Must Have

Every team should have a raccoon on itI wasn't too thrilled with some of the Annihilation stories. Not exactly sure why. Of course I had to pick up this series. I like the way it's starting out. I like that these aren't the typical buddy-teammates that we've seen too many times. I am especially interested in the certain person they discovered last issue. Will he play a role in this team? If so, then I am definitely hooked. So here's your chance to see what you might be missing.

“The book is fast paced, yet packed with insight and personal interludes, tempered by glorious visual fireworks, making this seem like an under publicized big screen gem set to runaway with more box office receipts than the production studio thought it was worth…This is a summer comic at its very best.” – Doug Zawisza of ComicBookResources.com

“Guardians of the Galaxy is a space adventure that is fun and engaging, and definitely worth your three bucks.” – Steven M. Bari of ComicsBulletin.com

“Guardians of the Galaxy is, a tremendous, action-packed extravaganza that pulsates with entertainment and style.” – Nick Budd of ComicPants.com

“We've got highfalutin space action, and an anthropomorphic raccoon stealing the show… It also helps that this was one of those damn fun comics that you always love to run across.” – Humphrey Lee of AintItCoolNews.com

“DnA have the chops to pull off big action oriented sci-fi comic goodness like they have done on Annihilation Conquest and the Nova monthly. The art team is fantastic and should provide beautiful imagery for the duration.” – Robert Tocapina of ComicAddiction.com
